Prominent people

of Australian History

A selection of people, and iconic legends, of Australian history.

Many thousands could be listed here, however, here are a selected few:

The Barcaldine strike leaders

The 1891 Shearers' Strike, centred around Barcaldine in Queensland, during the depression of the 1890s, was in response to the pastoralists' reaction to falling wool prices of intending to reduce the shearers' wages. During the unrest, the colonial administration ordered the arrest of the shearers' leaders on charges of sedition and conspiracy. The eventual failure of the strike broke worker militancy战斗性 and led to the formation of a labour political movement to represent the interests of working people.

Arthur Calwell

Born 28 August 1896, West Melbourne, Victoria Died 8 July 1973

Arthur Calwell was Australia's first Minister for Immigration (1945 to 1949), and later became the leader of the Australian Labor Party (1960 to 1967). He was the chief architect of Australia's post-war immigration scheme, and popularised the slogan "populate or perish". Also well-known for his much-misquoted comment "Two Wongs don't make a White". His immigration program co-incided with a period when Australian industry was growing rapidly and suffering from shortages of skilled and

semi-skilled labour. Although he was an advocate for the White Australia Policy, it is interesting to note that Calwell spoke Chinese and had a great respect for Asian cultures.

Caroline Chisholm

Born 1808, England

Died 1877

Caroline Chisholm arrived in Australia in 1838 and set up a home for other women who had come to live here. She worked to improve life on the ships bringing people to Australia to start a new life and started a loans plan to bring poor children and families to Australia. She arranged free trips so that the families of convicts who were transported to Australia could come to join them.

Captain Cook

Born 27 October 1728, Marton, Yorkshire, England

Died 14 February 1779, clubbed and stabbed to death by the not-so-friendly natives in Hawaii

James Cook was appointed in 1768 to command HM Bark Endeavour, to carry scientists to the South Seas on observe the transit of Venus across the sun (due to occur in 1769), and to explore the South Pacific for the Great South Land that was believed to exist (referred to as New Holland, as Dutch explorers had claimed to have sighted the west and north coasts). After the scientists' Venus observations were completed, Cook charted the New Zealand coastline, and then sailed westward to find the east coast of New Holland (Australia). Land was sighted on 20 April 1770 at what was named Point Hicks, then he sailed north, landing at Botany Bay, set sail again, and then landed on Possession Island on 22 August 1770 where he formally claimed the whole east coast for Britain, naming it New South Wales.

John Curtin

Born 1885, Creswick, Victoria

Died 5 July 1945, Canberra, ACT

Australia's wartime Prime Minister. Was elected secretary of the Timber-Worker's Union in Victoria in 1911. In 1916, when Billy Hughes was trying to introduce conscription, Curtin became secretary of the Victorian Anti-Conscription Campaign Committee and was sentenced to three months' jail for his speeches in opposition to conscription; although, after an appeal, he was released having served only three days of his

sentence. Curtin entered Federal Parliament as the Member for Fremantle in 1928; and formed a Labor Government in 1941 that governed Australia through the rest of the Second World War. Curtin argued with Churchill for the sending of Australia's forces back to New Guinea to fight off successfully the Japanese thrust (until the United States could mobilise for the drive back to Japan), and he battled (unsuccessfully) with both Churchill and Roosevelt to have the Pacific war against the Japanese given the same priority as the European war against the Germans. While his Government reorganised the war effort and provided Australia with its own aircraft, guns, tanks, munitions and soldiers, they also arranged widows' pensions, unemployment benefits, as well as planning an Australian Government airline and a system of free hospitals. Curtin did not live to see the end of the war or to see his post-war reconstruction policies come to fulfilment, as he died in July 1945. Curtin is regarded as one of the greatest Australian Prime Ministers.

Daniel Deniehy

Born 16th August 1828, Sydney, NSW

Died 22nd October 1865, Bathurst, NSW

Daniel Henry Deniehy was elected to the NSW Legislative Assembly in 1857 and 1860, with his main aim to open up public lands to the working class. He helped form the New South Wales Electoral Reform League, in order to push for greater democracy. He also founded his own newspaper in 1859, the Southern Cross, to review public affairs, foster national sentiment, and work towards the federation of the colonies.

C.J. Dennis

Born 7 September 1876, Auburn, South Australia Died 22 June 1938, Melbourne

C.J. Dennis, poet and journalist, was popular in Australia for his down-to-earth works, written in the vernacular of the times. In 1913 Dennis published a volume titled Backblock ballads and other verses, but it was not a financial success. Immediate success was achieved with The Songs of a sentimental bloke, a love story written in slang, which was published in October 1915; three editions were required in 1915, nine in 1916, and by 1976 fifty-seven editions had been published in Australia, England, Canada, and the USA.

Mary Gilmore

Born 1864 (Mary Cameron), Cotta Walla (near Goulburn), New South Wales

Died 1962

Mary Gilmore was a teacher and writer. She was the editor of the women’s pages of the Australian Worker newspaper for 23 years. She joined William Lane's "New Australia" utopian experiment settlement in Paraguay, and married William Gilmore there in 1897 (they both returned to Australia in 1902). A well-known Australian poet, her most popular piece is "No Foe Shall Gather Our Harvest".

Ned Kelly

Birth date unknown, commonly believed to be between November 1854 and January 1855, at Beveridge (25 miles north of Melbourne), Victoria

Died on the 11th November 1880, hung at Melbourne Gaol, Victoria

Ned Kelly is Australia's most famous bushranger. Said to have been forced into bushranging by the police, who were looking to shoot him, he and his gang robbed banks rather than robbing common folk. The Kelly gang had many active supporters and a wide following, and he made plans for the establishing a Republic of North Eastern. Ned was captured at Glenrowan, and was tried at Melbourne, where he was sentenced to death by hanging.

The men of Kokoda - the

saviours of Australia

1942

The New Guinea campaign, which included

Milne Bay and was typified by the Kododa

Track, is seen as a defining moment in

Australia's history. This was where the

preceived invincibility of the Japanese Army was first seen to be broken. The courage and heroism of our troops on the Kokoda Track is one of the proudest and and most memorable episodes in Australia's wartime history.

The Lambing Flat Rebellion

1861

The Lambing Flat Rebellion was a series of violent anti-Chinese demonstrations that took place around the Lambing Flat (now Young) area of New South Wales. The Miners' Protective League demanded parliamentary representation, protection of industry, and the expulsion of the Chinese. It has been said that it was this rebellion that was the starting point for the eventual White Australia Policy at Federation.

Jack Lang

Born 21 December 1876, Sydney, NSW

Died 27 September 1975, Auburn, NSW

John Thomas Lang (familiarly known as "Jack", and nicknamed "The Big Fella") was Treasurer in the NSW Labor government of 1920-21, and Premier and Treasurer of the State twice (1925-27 and 1930-32). His first term brought many significant innovations, including child endowment, widows' pensions, increased

workers' compensation rates, reversion to the 44-hour week, abolition of secondary school fees, and votes for all in local government elections. Lang's second term, which coincided with the worst years of the Great Depression, ended with the dismissal of his government by

the State Governor (Sir Philip Game). Lang's

dismissal arose from his refusal to pay interest

on government loans borrowed from financiers in

the United Kingdom at the height of the Great

Depression.

John Dunmore Lang

Born 1799

Died 1878

The Rev. John Dunmore Lang was, besides being a minister of religion, a republican orator, writer and political organizer, who campaigned for a republic in the 1840s and 1850s, putting forward his plan for a "United States of Australia, the great republic of the Southern Seas". Lang lobbied for the end of transportation, which he saw as an endless conduit of iniquity pouring into the Colony. See: John Dunmore Lang - Patriot, Republican, Statesman, Evangelical, & Engima

Henry Lawson

Born 17 June 1867, on the Grenfell goldfields

(372 km west of Sydney), NSW

Died 2 September 1922, Abbotsford, Sydney, NSW

Henry Lawson was one of Australia's greatest

writers. His interest in the republican movement

was sparked by his exposure to the radicalism of

friends of his mother, Louisa. In 1887 he became

titular publisher of the Republican(in which

his first writings appeared), and his first

published verse, "Song of the Republic",

appeared in The Bulletin. Lawson became one of

Australia's most influential writers and showed

his interest in the ordinary men and women of Australia, such as in his story "The Drover's Wife" about a woman living and subsisting off the land on an Australian selection. His writing was often taken from memories of his childhood, especially at Pipeclay/Eurunderee. Towards the end of 1892, he was unemployed, and J.F. Archibald (editor of The Bulletin) staked him for his famous Bourke journey; while there he found employment painting houses, and then, during a brutal drought, humped his bluey, there and back, to Hungerford. This revelation of the harshness of the outback was pivotal in Lawson's understanding of the country, leaving a deep mark on Lawson's psyche and validating his belief in the "horrors of bush life", and supplied the impetus for "The Union Buries Its Dead" and "Hungerford". Lawson was well known for his bush ballads "The Teams", "The Roaring Days", and "Andy's Gone with the Cattle", as well as his social and political works, such as "Watch on the Kerb", "Faces in the Street", "Freedom on the Wallaby", and "The Army of the Rear". In 1986, Lawson married Bertha Bredt (stepdaughter of the radical Sydney bookseller W.H. McNamara, and sister-in-law of Jack Lang). He tried his hand in New Zealand (1897), then in England (1900), and returned to Sydney in 1902. His alcoholism, dating from 1898, then became a major problem leading to separation from his wife in 1903. From 1907 to 1918 Lawson was often destitute, although he was later awarded a weekly pension from the Commonwealth Literary Fund in 1920. When he died in 1922, Lawson was given a state funeral at St. Andrew's Church.

Ted Mack

Ted Mack is the only Australian to ever have been elected and re-elected as an independent to local, state, and federal government. He was elected to the North Sydney City Council as an Alderman in 1974, where he served until 1988 (he was Mayor of North Sydney 1980-1988); while serving as mayor, he was elected to the New South Wales state parliament as

the Member of the Legislative Assembly for North

Shore 1981-1988; and was elected as the federal Member of Parliament for North Sydney from 1990 to 1996. He instituted democratic reforms in his local area and is well-respected as a man of democracy. Mack

has been a staunch defender of electors' rights and

a passionate supporter of peoples' right to a greater

say in government. He was also elected as an independent Republican delegate to the 1998 Constitutional Convention, where he opposed the

model favoured by the Australian Republican Movement, and argued that Australian voters should have a direct say in the process to decide their Head

of State.

Captain Moonlight

Born 1842, North Ireland

Died 20 January 1880, hung in Darlinghurst Gaol, Sydney, NSW

Andrew Scott, better known as Captain Moonlight, was a bushranger. He robbed the Mt. Egerton branch (Victoria) of the London Chartered Bank, on 20 December 1870, he was brought before the Sydney Quarter Sessions for passing bad cheques and and he was sentenced to twelve months in Maitland Gaol. On his release in March 1872 he was promptly

arrested and extradited to Victoria to face a re-opening of the Mt. Egerton bank robbery case, Judge Redmond Barry (the same judge that tried Ned Kelly) sentenced him to ten years imprisonment for the robbery and gave him an additional twelve months for escaping from Ballarat Gaol for a few days whilst awaiting trial. He was released 18 March 1879, and was soon after strongly suspected of robbing the Lancefield bank, went to NSW, held up the Wantabadgery Station homestead (ending up with over 30 hostages); however, when the police were alerted, Scott and his partners-in-crime escaped, although they were later recaptured when they holed up in another homestead. He was tried in Sydney on 8 December 1879, and sentenced to death.

Breaker Morant

Born Christmas 1865, Bideford, Devon, England

(according to him)

Died 27 February 1902, Pretoria, South Africa,

shot by a firing squad

Harry "Breaker" Morant was a horse breaker of

much repute, as well as being a writer for The

Bulletin. His origins are shrouded in mystery,

and seems to have appeared in Australia from

nowhere (or, at least, no official trace of him

arriving, or of his origins, has yet been

found). He signed up for the Boer War, was

alleged to have shot some Boer prisoners under

orders from his superior officer, Captain

Hunt, and was executed by the British Army. The

film Breaker Morant is worthwhile watching.

Henry Parkes

Born in 1815, England

Died in1896

Sir Henry Parkes was a famous journalist and politician. He was an ex-chartist and he

migrated to Sydney in 1839 and worked as a

toymaker, a labourer and a journalist. He

established the Empire Newspaper in 1850, which failed financially. He led public protests

against re-introduction of convict labour.

Elected to Legislative Council in 1854, he was

a strong democrat and disagreed with William

Wentworth's amended Constitution - he

considered it a "squatter's constitution". He organised local government bodies, and

initiated hospital reforms. He also introduced compulsory free education, withdrawing all

state aid to church schools in 1880. He was appointed Colonial secretary (1866) and Premier of New South Wales in 1872; and remained a

political giant until the final collapse of his government in 1891 which marked the end of his political career. He was a great advocate of Federation. In 1880 he called an Intercolonial Conference to discuss Chinese immigration,

following which all states (except Western

Australia) agreed to impose restrictions. He made a famous afterdinner speech at Tenterfield in 1889 which was a powerful emotional appeal on behalf of Federation. Later similar speeches throughout N.S.W. resulted in an unsuccessful Federal Conference in Melbourne (1890). Parkes was the president of 1891 National Convention but disapproved of the draft constitutions. The Australian Natives Association at Corowa (1893) adopted his suggestion that a convention be elected to draw up a constitution.

Banjo Paterson

Born 17 February 1864, near Orange, New South Wales

Died 5 February 1941, Sydney, NSW

Andrew Barton Paterson is possibly Australia's most popular poet, with his compositions including Waltzing Matilda, The Man from Snowy River, Clancy of the Overflow, and The Geebung Polo Club. He used the pseudonym of "The Banjo" for his magazine writings (an alias derived from the name of a racehorse the family owned), and had a deep affection for horses, being a natural horseman, and, not surprisingly, many of his works have a "horse theme". Paterson was caught up in colonial Australia's commitment to the unfortunate Boer War, becoming a war correspondent. Before his death in 1941, he had provided a timeless literary legacy of Australia's unique cultural heritage and identity.

W.G. Spence

Born 1846, in a village in the Orkney Islands, Scotland

Died 13 December 1926

William Guthrie Spence is well-known as a trade union leader. He came to Australia with his father hoping to find gold on the Ballarat

goldfields in 1853. As a miner, Spence held several minor posts in the Amalgamated Miners' Association of Victoria until eventually being elected Secretary in 1882. In 1886, Spence

became foundation president of the Amalgamated Shearers' Union of Australasia and guided the union through the turbulent industrial disputes in many of Australia's shearing sheds,

particularly those in Queensland that became so prevalent in the early 1890s. By 1892, Spence had broken his ties with the Amalgamated Miners' Association in Victoria and went on to help combine several small bush unions with the

Amalgamated Shearers' Union to form, in 1894,

the Australian Workers' Union. Spence assumed the office of Secretary and four years later, President. In 1898, Spence was elected Federal Member for Darling but retained his office with the Australian Workers' Union. It wasn't until 1916, when he became embroiled in the conscription debate of that year, that he tendered his resignation. Spence died in 1926 and is buried in Coburg Cemetery.

"Inky" Stephensen

Born 1901, Biggenden, Queensland

Died May 1965, Sydney, NSW

P.R. (Percy Reginald) Stephensen was a giant of Australian letters. Stephensen's great intellectual achievement was to link together the vision of Australian political and economic independence (then from the old Empire) with the 'idea' of Australian cultural independence. He wrote The Foundations Of Culture In

Australia about Australia's Identity and the struggle for national independence - an important book in the historical development of Australia's cultural independence.

Swagmen

The swagmen are an icon of Australian

bush life. Roaming from town to town,

homestead to homestead, in search of

work, the swaggies were born in the

Great Depression of the 1890s when

there was little work to be had in the

major cities around Australia.

第三十章澳大利亚经济 Chapter 30 The Economy Ⅰ.工业 Manufacturing Industry 澳大利亚的制造业以制砖开始。86%的制造业为小企业。 Manufacturing in Australia began with the making of bricks. It is estimated that 86% of all manufacturing firms are small businesses. 在世界的总格局中,澳大利亚的制造业是独特的。它的特点包括下面几点: In a world context Australian manufacturing is unique. Its features include the following: 1)效率低Inefficiency 澳大利亚的市场有限,它在地理上与外界的隔绝以及很高的关税壁垒是影响澳大利亚工业效率的几个因素。 Australia's limited local market, its geographical isolation and high levels of tariff protection are the factors that affect the efficiency of Australian manufacturing. 效率最低并且最受保护的工业是汽车、纺织、服装和制鞋工业。 The industries that are most inefficient and most highly protected are automobile, textiles, clothing and footwear industries. 2)高度集中Concentration 在过去20年里,大的联合企业在澳大利亚经济中一直起中心作用。 Over the last 20 years large conglomerates have been given a central role in the Australian economy. 整个钢铁工业由一个公司控制,这就是布洛肯·希尔专卖有限公司。 The entire steel industry is in the hands of one company, the Broken Hill Proprietary Company Limited (BHP). 3)外国投资Foreign investment 澳大利亚的制造业在很大程度上依靠外国投资。外资公司比他们的澳大利亚同行获利多。 Australian manufacturing relies heavily on foreign investment. Companies that are foreign-owned tend to be more profitable than their Australian counterparts. Ⅱ.农业 Agriculture 200年前,澳大利亚是一个没有农业的大陆。今天,农业却是这个国家的最大的和最多样化的行业。澳大利亚是世界上粮食和天然纤维的主要生产国之一。 200 years ago Australia was a land without agriculture. Today, agriculture is the nation's largest and most diverse industry. Australia is one of the world's leading

澳大利亚篇 澳大利亚留学专题项目介绍 1)澳洲概况 2)教育制度 3)万里学院合作项目 1). 澳大利亚概况 俄罗斯、加拿大、中国、美国和巴西的世界上第六 个陆地面积最大的国家。但它拥有的人口却较少。 澳大利亚是世界上唯一管辖整个洲和它的外围岛屿 的国家。澳大利亚大陆是地球上最大的岛屿,也是 地球上最小和最平坦的陆地。澳大利亚位于南纬10 度到39度之间。 澳大利亚联邦由六个州和两个地区组成。内陆的边 界大部分是沿着经纬线划定的。 1788年英国在新南威尔士州的悉尼建立了最早的欧 洲殖民地。悉尼是澳大利亚最大的城市,曾主办2000 年奥林匹克运动会。悉尼的港湾大桥和歌剧院是澳 大利亚的象征。 维多利亚是澳洲大陆上面积最小但人口密度最大的 州。首府墨尔本是澳大利亚的第二大城市,曾主办1956年奥林匹克运动会。维多利亚人以酷爱体育运动著称。 昆士兰州从约克角的热带雨林伸展到温带地区。东北海岸旁蜿蜒着著名的大堡礁。昆士兰州首府是布里斯本。该州在布里斯本、凯恩斯和汤斯维尔三个城市都建有国际机场,为来自海外的旅行者服务。 南澳大利亚州由私立殖民委员会创建,它没有接纳被放逐犯人的历史,首府为阿得雷德。每两年举行一次的"阿得雷德艺术节"已成为国际性的文化盛会。 西澳大利亚州的面积约相当于整个西欧。全州185万人口,其中约 75%居住在首府佩斯。 塔斯马尼亚岛及其周围许多岛屿,隔巴斯海峡与大陆相望,构成澳大利亚最小的一个州。首府是霍巴特。该市是一年一度澳大利亚最盛大的帆船比赛"悉尼-霍巴特帆船赛"的终点站。 北部地区的面积相当于法国的两倍多,人口则不到20万。达尔文是北部地区的首府,艾丽丝泉城是其主要的内地城市。这个地区有重要的旅游胜地乌卢鲁-卡塔·丘达和卡喀杜国家公园。 1911年,在新南威尔士州境内建立了澳大利亚首都地区,即堪培拉。这里是许多国家机构的所在地,包括联邦议 会、国家图书馆、澳大利亚国家美术馆、高等法院和澳大利亚战争纪念馆。

澳大利亚基本国情概况

澳大利亚基本国情概况 澳大利亚联邦(The Commonwealth of Australia),简称澳大利亚,其最早居民为土著人。1770年英国航海家詹姆斯·库克抵澳东海岸,宣布英国占有这片土地。1788年1月26日英国流放到澳大利亚的第一批犯人抵悉尼湾,英开始在澳建立殖民地,后来这一天被定为澳大利亚国庆日。1900年7月,英议会通过“澳大利亚联邦宪法”和“不列颠自治领条例”。 1901年1月1日,澳各殖民区改为州,成立澳大利亚联邦。1931年成为英联邦内的独立国家。 1986年,英议会通过“与澳大利亚关系法”,澳大利亚获得完全立法权和司法终审权。 一、基本国情 (一)自然状况 1、地理位置 澳大利亚位于南太平洋和印度洋之间,具体位置在南纬10度41'和43度39'之间。由澳大利亚大陆、塔斯马尼亚岛等岛屿和海外领土组成。东濒太平洋的珊瑚海和塔斯曼海,北、西、南三面临印度洋及其边缘海。海岸线长36,735公里。澳大利亚的国土面积为769.2万平方公里,居世界第六位,仅次于俄罗斯、加拿大、中国、美国和巴西。其陆地面积为768.24万平方公里,是世界上唯一独占一片大陆的国家,南北距离约3,700公里,东西约4,000公里。它东临南太平洋,西临印度洋,东南隔塔斯曼海与新西兰为邻,北部隔帝汶海和托雷斯海峡与东帝汶、印度尼西亚和巴布亚新几内亚相望。 澳大利亚虽四面临海,虽四面环水,但沙漠和半沙漠却占全国面积的35%。全国分为东部山地、中部平原和西部高原3个地区。全国最高峰科修斯科山海拨2230米,最长河流墨尔本河长3490里。中部的埃尔湖是澳大利亚的最低点,湖面低于海平面12米。在东部沿海有全世界最大的珊瑚礁──大堡礁。85%的澳大利亚人住在离海岸线50公里以内的地区,主要集中在首都堪培拉和澳洲的两大城市悉尼、墨尔本。城市集中在沿海,农村则在相对偏内陆一点。 2、气候特征 澳大利亚三分之一的地区处于南回归线以北,属于热带,而其余地区则属温带。澳大利亚春季为9月至11月,夏季为12月至2月,秋季为3月至5月,冬季为6月至8月。由于受亚热带高气压和东南信风的影响,加之全国35%的沙漠地带,澳气候比较干燥。北部年平均气温约摄氏27度,南部年平均气温约摄氏14度。澳西部和中部因沙漠气候,年平均降雨量不足250毫米;北部半岛和沿海地区属于热带草原气候,年平均降雨量为750—2,000

初中地理《澳大利亚》教案 一、教学目标 【知识与技能】 1.能说出澳大利亚的地形与气候特点; 2.会解释澳大利亚的气候地形与牧羊带分布之间的关系。 【过程与方法】 通过自主学习和小组合作学习的方式,培养探究意识,提高自主探究、合作研讨地理问题的能力。 【情感态度与价值观】 通过分析澳大利亚牧羊带的分布与自然环境之间的关系,体会因地制宜的理念。 二、教学重难点 【重点】 澳大利亚地形、气候与牧羊带分布之间的关系。 【难点】 体会因地制宜发展农牧业的理念。 三、教学过程 环节一:导入新课 多媒体导入。教师播放澳大利亚剪羊毛比赛的视频,引出为什么澳大利亚牧羊业发达,被称为“骑在羊背上的国家”,进而导入新课。 环节二:新课教学 1.察“颜”观“色”——看地形

教师PPT展示《澳大利亚地形图》,学生读图并思考以下问题。 【问题】 (1)澳大利亚有哪些地形单元?分布有什么特点?(提醒学生注意不同地形区的颜色不同)。 (2)就地形而言,那些地区适合放牧? 【学生活动】 (1)澳大利亚的地形有高原、平原和山地。在分布上西部为广阔的高原,中部是平原,东部为大分水岭。 (2)平原地区、中部高原地区。 【教师总结】从澳大利亚的地形图我们看到,大部分地区以绿色和浅褐色为主,而且颜色变化少,根据图例可知澳大利亚地势较低,起伏较小,平原和高原广阔,从地形方面考虑对农业是非常有利的。那么除了地形之外,还有哪些因素对澳大利亚发展农业有利呢? 2.明眸慧眼——找气候 教师PPT展示《澳大利亚气候分布图》和《澳大利亚年降水量分布图》,学生读图回答。

【问题】 (1)澳大利亚的气候有什么特点? (2)澳大利亚降水分布规律? 【学生回答】澳大利亚以热带沙漠气候和热带草原气候为主。降水南北多,中部少。 【教师总结】从图中我们能读到,澳大利亚气候以热带沙漠气候和热带草原气候为主,东南部、西南部降水较多,利于农牧业发展,中部地区虽降水少,但地下水丰富,也适合畜牧业发展。所以澳大利亚的自然环境对农牧业发展提供了优良条件。 3.做一个精明的农场主——因地制宜 【情境创设】如果你是位澳大利亚牧场主,从地形、气候角度考虑,你会把牧场布局何处?引导学生进入澳大利亚地形和气候的认识。 多媒体展示:

澳大利亚国家简介

澳大利亚国家简介 澳大利亚是最古老的大陆之一,其面积为7,682,300平方公里。大陆基岩已经历了三十多亿年的侵独。澳大利亚位于印度洋和太平洋之间,它是唯一一个领土覆盖整个大陆的国家。其面积是继俄罗斯、加拿大、中国、美国、巴西之后的第六大国。澳大利亚近三分之一的大陆位于热带地区,其余的位于温带地区。最冷的地区位于塔斯马尼亚的高原地区和东南大陆的边缘地带。其年平均气温从最北部的27℃到最南部的13℃。每年的12月到2月为澳大利亚的夏季,3月到5月为秋季,6月到8月为冬季,9月到11月为春季。澳大利亚的地理区域多种多样,每个地区都有极美丽和与众不同的地形。其北部有广阔的平原和雨林;东南部有雪原;中部有沙漠;而东部、东南和西南部却有肥沃的耕地。澳大利亚有大面积的干旱或半沙漠地区,约有三分之一的土地不适合任何形式的农、牧业活动。尽管如此,澳大利亚的羊毛产量为世界之冠,而且还是世界上主要的产矿国。 澳大利亚是英联邦国家,官方语言为英语。地处南太平洋,四面环海,国土面积为768万平方公里,共有6个州及2个特别行政区。澳大利亚为移民国家,总人口1980万,来自140多个国家和地区。其中约70%的人口信奉基督教。澳大利亚拥有丰富的地上和地下资源,自然环境优美宜人,人口密度低,物价水平适中,是富有活力和颇具影响力的发达国家。 澳大利亚的气候 澳大利亚以蓝天白云、温和的气候和丰富多彩的户外活动方式闻名世界,到澳大利亚学习和生活的人们均可享受惬意和舒适的自然环境。 澳大利亚地处温带或热带区,12月到2月为夏季,3月到5月为秋季,6月到8月为冬季,9月到11月为春季。全年平均气温(摄氏度)见下表: 各州名称 冬季温度 夏季温度 新南威尔士州 悉尼 8-20 17-28

初中世界地理知识点归纳:澳大利亚简介

初中世界地理知识点归纳:澳大利亚简介澳大利亚 1、地理位置:西北与亚洲相邻,东临太平洋,西临印度洋,南与南极洲相望,是独自占有一个大陆的国家。南回归线横穿澳大利亚的中部,位于五带中的热带和南温带。 2、领土组成:澳大利亚大陆、塔斯马尼亚岛等。面积居世界第六位。 3、世界活化石的博物馆:澳大利亚大陆早在6500万年前与其他大陆分离,孤立于南半球的海洋上,生物进化缓慢,又缺少天敌,保存了很多古老的物种。如跳远名将-袋鼠;澳洲懒汉-考拉(树熊);长跑运动员-鸸鹋;卵生哺乳动物-鸭嘴兽。 4、骑在羊背上的国: ⑴、地势低平。地形自西向东明显地分三部分:西部是高原、中部是平原、东部是山地。澳大利亚农牧业分布于地形的关系:澳大利亚粗放牧羊带和牧牛带分布在西部、中部、北部地区,而东南部和西南部沿海是混合农业带,东南部、西南部沿海地区平原既适合牧羊又适合发展耕作业,而且在时间上不会发生冲突。

⑵、气候:南回归线横穿澳大利亚的中部,位于五带中的热带和南温带,因此气候以热带草原气候和热带沙漠气候为主。澳大利亚农牧业分布与气候的关系:澳大利亚中部、西部和北部地区为广大的热带沙漠气候和热带草原气候区,较为干燥,适宜牲畜过冬和繁殖,东南部温带海洋性气候、西南部的地中海式气候也同样适宜耕作业。 ⑶、澳大利亚70﹪以上的羊只,集中在东南部和西南部的混合经验地带,其他广大地区放养的羊只相对较少,原因是澳大利亚西部高原广阔的地区分布了大面积的沙漠,没有办法发展农牧业,形成了一个大面积的农业空白区域;而东南部和西南部地区,地势低平,气候湿润,雨热条件好,既有利于小麦的种植,又有利于养羊业的发展,形成绵羊和小麦的混合经营带。 ⑷、澳大利亚出口的主要农牧产品:羊毛、牛肉、小麦。 ⑸、澳大利亚养羊业的发展条件:a草原肥美,分布广;b 地下水丰富;c气候干燥,适于绵羊繁殖;d羊群无天敌 4、坐在矿车上的国家:

Stepping into Australia's five schools on the top, we will find the Australian university education combines American-style opened ethos and continuation of the traditional British education. P ersonnel’s training provides a relaxed learning space, and it’s a good academic atmosphere there. At last, the teacher taught us the grammar of English, some idioms in English and played some videos about Australia. In teaching, the teacher taught in English from beginning to the end which made us improve our own listening. We thank the teacher and I hope his class will be better and better. That’s all I wanted. Now I will give the teacher some advice. Teachers stressed the importance of constructing and understanding the situational factors. Under the guidance of a teacher, the students explore the social and cultural values to reflect on why some culture can be popular for a long time, and how it became a product of the times. Students' thinking and values will changes to make a re-interpretation about how different the groups of culture are. Students explore the culture points to the audience about how to influence the culture. Students’ sensitive cultural prejudices are changed. Students will realize l the diversity of the national culture of each country.

英语国家概况 英国&澳大利亚部分Terms

Terms 1. Magna Carta Magna Carta (Latin for "Great Charter", literally "Great Paper"). In 1215, King John was forced by a group of feudal Barons (男爵,贵族) and the church to grant them a charter of liberty and political rights. Magna Carta placed some limits on the king’s ability to abuse his royal power. The Magna Carta is regarded as the foundation of the British Constitutionalism(立宪制度)and it provides the basic principles(基本原则)for the protection of individual rights in both Britain and the United States. 2. The Hundred Years’ War The Hundred Years’War was a series of wars fought between England and France over trade, Territory(领土), security(安全)and the throne(王权). The Hundred Years’ War promoted the concept of English Nationalism(民族主义)and the development of the textile industry because it reduced the export of English wool (羊毛). The war raised the social position of the bourgeois(资产阶级)class. All these factors contributed to the decline of feudalism(封建制度)in England. 3. The Wars of the Roses玫瑰战争 Between 1455 and 1485 a series of battles were fought between the two branches of the Plantagenet family, the House of Lancaster, symbolized by the red rose, and the House of York, symbolized by the white rose, ended with the failure of the House of York. 4. Black Death Black Death was the modern name given to the deadly(致命的)bubonic plague(黑死病), an epidemic disease(流行病) spread by rat fleas(鼠疫跳蚤). It was a fierce and widespread outbreak of plague(瘟疫) that ravaged(毁坏)the whole of Europe in the 14th century. It hit England first in 1349 with subsequent waves between 1360 and 1375 . The plague killed perhaps up to one-third of the British population. As a result of the plague, much land was left untended and there was a terrible shortage of labour. 5. The Industrial Revolution The Industrial Revolution refers to the mechanization(机械化) of industry and the consequences in social and economic organization in Britain in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Britain was the first country to industrialize. The Industrial Revolution in Britain first began in the textile (纺织)industry.
